can we ask google or bing to run the query

SELECT FileType, COUNT(*) AS ‘Pages’
FROM LinkTable
GROUP BY FileType
ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC

Result:

FileType Pages
———– ———
asp 63564535434
aspx 4554345
php 5

This means asp classic is the most popular on the web, but according to developers it is not

I like Java dynamic class loader and I think this is one of the most important reason that Java became popular. C and C++ are wonderful.

Java’s leading the stats. I know another criteria for measurement:
Suicide count of desperates that tried to cope with the complexity of a dev language.
1. JAVA
2. JAVA Webframeworks (JSF etc.)
3. JAVA EE & Glassfish
4. Pearl

Java is a solid language, but I hate using it. It is slow (relative to C/C++) and for some reason it makes me feel dirty. I can’t really explain it. I would much rather use Python than Java.

C & C++ are definitely kings of the hill. Whoever said writing large scale applications in C/C++ is like cutting your lawn with scissors is obviously an amatuer developer. C# is a nice language, but it lowers the entry point for becoming a developer, and as such, you get a bunch of very poorly designed projects.

Don’t get me wrong, C/C++ are not without their problems… but if you want to become a very solid developer, you need to learn them so as to understand what goes on underneath the hood if you will.

Salute to “Java Suck”: It’s always nice to hear the well reasoned comments of a teenager.
